After Ying Ziqiu took down Shouchun City, the capital of the Chu Kingdom, without shedding a single drop of blood, he did not stay here for long.
After resting in the palace for a day and feeding the army, they set off to pursue the fleeing King of Chu, Fuchu.
Although they had taken down the capital of the Chu Kingdom, as long as the King of Chu was still alive, the Chu Kingdom would not be destroyed.
He left behind some men to maintain order in Shouchun City.
Ying Ziqiu led the rest of the Qin army, Jing Tian, who had just surrendered, and 100,000 Chu soldiers to pursue the King of Chu.
Although Jing Tian and the hundred thousand Chu soldiers had surrendered, Ying Ziqiu didn't trust them to the point where he would have his back to them.
Kill can't kill, stay can't stay.
Ying Ziqiu had no choice but to bring them along to chase after King Chu Fuchu. This would allow them to completely sever their relationship with the Chu Country.
They chased after him.
Every city Ying Ziqiu passed by was filled with fear. Even the Jing Clan, one of the three great aristocratic families of Chu, had surrendered. They didn't dare to resist.
Cities changed their flags one after another, and land changed from Chu territory to Qin territory.
On the official road.
Ying Ziqiu rode on his warhorse at a moderate pace. He looked at Jing Tian, who had a respectful expression on his face, with a satisfied expression.
He didn't expect the Jing Clan to be so famous in Chu.
Along the way, Ying Ziqiu practically didn't use any weapons.
Jing Tian went forward to persuade them to surrender. Coupled with Ying Ziqiu's reputation as a human butcher, they basically surrendered.
"Not bad!"
"It seems that your Jing Clan is quite famous in Chu!”
Ying Ziqiu praised softly.
Jing Tian was instantly overwhelmed by the favor and thanked him profusely."Thank you for your praise, Second Prince. It's Jing Tian's honor to be able to help you!”
That look!
That expression!
It was simply licking to the extreme!
"Very good!"
"As long as you work for the State of Qin and remain loyal, I can continue to keep your Jing Clan rich!”
Ying Ziqiu didn't mind giving him some benefits when he saw that he was so understanding.
But the prerequisite was that he had to be loyal!
"Rest assured, Your Highness!"
"Heaven and earth can prove my loyalty!"
"This Jing will definitely lead the way and be the first to capture King Chu for His Highness the Second Prince!”
Hearing Ying Ziqiu's words, Jing Tian was ecstatic and repeatedly promised Ying Ziqiu.
Whether the Jing Clan could survive or not depended on Ying Ziqiu's decision. He had to show his worth and prove that he was a loyal and useful person!
King Fu Chu was the best proof of loyalty!
"It depends on your performance!" Ying Ziqiu nodded slightly and said this, filling Jing Tian with fighting spirit.
......
Several days later.
Ying Ziqiu led the army to follow the traces of King Chu Fuchu's retreat to South Yue.
The mountain road here was rugged and the terrain was complicated, greatly slowing down the speed of the army.
The king of Chu, Fu Chu, had an army of 300,000.
The target was huge.
Ying Ziqiu had sent out scouts to find him easily.
At this moment, King Chu Fuchu was walking with difficulty on a large mountain. The long journey had exhausted him mentally.
After dealing with the scouts sent by King Fuchu, Ying Ziqiu led his army to the front of King Fuchu's army and surrounded them.
On the winding mountain road.
Lord Chu sat in the carriage, his body constantly being jolted, and he felt his stomach churning.
"Hateful Ying Ziqiu!"
"You actually forced me into this barren mountain!”
"One day, I will make you pay the price!”
Lord Chu Fu Chu cursed as he sat in the carriage.
but...
He could only say some harsh words here. He did not dare to face Ying Ziqiu at all. Otherwise, he would not have escaped to the high mountains of South Vietnam.
Rumble!
Just as King Chu Fuchu was cursing Ying Ziqiu in his carriage, a loud noise came from outside, mixed with the screams of soldiers.
" What's wrong?!"
" What happened?!"
King Fu Chu asked in panic. He lifted the curtain of the carriage to check the situation outside.
Suddenly!
His pupils suddenly constricted. The surrounding hills had been filled with people at some point in time, pushing down boulders that were half the height of a person.
"Ahhhhh!"
Countless Chu soldiers had their bones and muscles broken by the huge rocks. They spat out blood and let out mournful wails.
Oh no!
They were ambushed!
Had Ying Ziqiu caught up?
Chu King Fu Chu's mind was in chaos, he was panicking like a frightened quail.
"Charge!"
"Take down King Chu, King Chu Fu Chu!"
A familiar voice entered King Chu Fuchu's ears. He followed the voice and looked.
Wasn't this the Great General Jing Tian that he had left behind to guard Shouchun City?？
Why would he suddenly appear in this place and attack him?？
Doubt!
He was puzzled!
What followed was deep anger!
Feeling betrayed, he stood up and shouted,""Jing Tian, how dare you rebel and attack the king? Are you trying to rebel?？”
Jing Tian had already made up his mind to cling to Ying Ziqiu.
Naturally, he would no longer care about King Fu Chu's angry rebuke.
He laughed coldly. Your Majesty, you listened to the slanderous words of Huang Xie and left my Jing Clan to die in Shouchun City. Now, I have surrendered to Qin and become a guest of the Second Prince.”
"Now is the time for me to be loyal!”
Puff--
King Fu Chu almost spat out a mouthful of blood when he heard this. He felt as if ten thousand f * cking beasts were roaring in his heart.
His head was buzzing!
Originally, he had left Jing Tian to lead 100,000 troops to guard Shouchun City so that he could drag Ying Ziqiu out and buy him time to retreat and find a new capital in South Yue.
It was all good now.
Not only did they not stop him at all, they even gave Ying Ziqiu a hundred thousand soldiers for nothing!
Now, they had all become his enemies!
"Huang Xie!"
"Look at what you've done!"
King Fu Chu turned to look at Prime Minister Huang Xie, his face full of anger.
If he hadn't suggested that the Jing Clan stay, Ying Ziqiu wouldn't have been able to catch up to them so quickly.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"I am only thinking of the King. The Jing Clan is a noble clan of the Chu Country and has a great reputation in Shouchun City. I also want to use the reputation of the Jing Clan to unite the people of Shouchun City to defend the city.”
The Prime Minister Huang Xie immediately cried out. How could he admit that he had taken the opportunity to take revenge and wanted the Jing Clan to die?
However, at this moment.
There was no point in admitting it or not admitting it.
That was because…
They were destined to perish!
"General Jing Tian, did you hear what the Prime Minister said?”
"He isn't sending your Jing Clan to your deaths. Return to Chu, and we will fight against the Violent Qin together!”
"If you're not satisfied, I can arrest the Prime Minister and hand him over to you!”
Fu Chu, the King of Chu, tried to persuade Jing Tian to return to Chu.
He even took down Prime Minister Huang Xie and handed him over to Jing Tian.
At this moment.
In his eyes, Huang Xie and Jing Tian were nothing compared to a hundred thousand soldiers.
"Great King, you…"
Prime Minister Huang Xie was shocked. He didn't expect that King Chu would take him down and hand him over to Jing Tian.
Without waiting for him to finish, King Chu Fuchu gave the guards a look and took down Prime Minister Huang Xie.
"Your Majesty, why are you doing this?”
"From the moment you ordered me to stay in Shouchun City, it was already impossible for me to return to Chu!”
"Generals, listen up!"
"Now that we are part of the Qin army, we can be rewarded for killing the enemy. We will be granted a title and become nobles!”
"Kill!"
Facing the persuasion of King Fu Chu, Jing Tian was completely indifferent. He directly ordered to attack King Fu Chu.
"Charge!"
"Kill!"
The 20-rank military merit system of Qin State made the morale of these surrendered soldiers high.
Acquire a title and become a noble!
In the past, this was something that they had never dared to imagine in their entire lives.
Now, the opportunity was right in front of them. How could they let it go?
